Rick Scott took the 5th Amendment 75 times, Democratic party ad says | PolitiFact Florida

This alone would have dissuaded me from voting for the man.
Now in his term as governor it appears he is just going to ban any one from saying anything about what he doesnt agree with or what doesnt go his way?,What are his people already not saying anything about? Perhaps how he rigged the election ?

The fact that he's banning the term means it's a bigger problem than we think and he knows it.

The articles referenced by the OP appear to me to be nothing but a hatchet job on the part of left wing liberals on a Republican governor. Enthusiastically capitulated, of course, by those who don't like the man or agree with his political perspective.

Despite the wild claims out there by the "global warming" enthusiasts, and even their attempts to discredit and intimidate those skeptical about their claims, there's no valid proof showing that human activity is the cause for climate "changes", which, BTW, has occurred since the planet formed from asteroids and cosmic dust billions of years ago ( or whatever theories are out there for the formation of our planets and solar system). First hand observation of current and past weather patterns, reports of falsifying "global warming" data, and the frenzy with which "climate change-ologists" and their naive albeit enthusiastic supporters work to hang the "global warmin...er climate change" cause and effect label on observed inclement weather phenomena ( ie, record snowfalls, record low temperatures, storms, you name it) certainly do nothing to support any claims that the planet is "warming due to human activity".

It isn't a done deal, folks, despite the claims you hear from the megaphones of those who stand to benefit from "carbon credit" tax they would levy on those who exhale those toxic (CO2) fumes, or even their attempts to discredit, character assassinate or ruin the lives and livelihoods of those skeptical about their claims. Hence it would be very inappropriate for any state government or its employees to misrepresent their own views regarding "climate change", Keystone Pipeline, or any other agenda as an official state stance or mission. The directive that came from the governor's office was " don't say anything that is not true", and folks, speculation is just that, speculation.

Heartlander Magazine. Now there's an unbiased source.


The Heartland Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Especially interesting is where their funding comes from.

As Mr Scott seems to think Global warming doesnt exist,Mr Scott heres some recommended reading from some very credible sources.
Global Warming Effects Information, Global Warming Effects Facts, Climate Change Effects - National Geographic

Global Warming | Monitoring References | National Climatic Data Center (NCDC)

Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet: Consensus

There is virtually no debate on this GW issue from the worlds scientific community,For some odd reason the only descension on the GW issue seems to be coming from vociferous proponents of Americas rightwing political demographic.
And while we are at it Mr Scott you might want to re familiarize yourelf with this =

Do you have some proof of no climate change except 'you don't believe'? Real proof based on scientific research but not on denialism of your rebuplican masters, and links please.

Scott should be serving time in jail. He is a criminal. Leave it to FLOR-I-DUH. He paid for his job.
He will let big Sugar off the hook for polluting the glades. A real POS.

My guess is that Rick Scott believes in Global Warning but denies it to get conservative votes. Global warming does not impact him. He can leave this planet in his UFO once it gets too hot in here.

Unseasonably Hot? Unseasonably Cold? Better fire all the local weather forecasters? George Carlin would have a field day with this if he were still alive today.
